A New York City university that is best known for basketball players that love to gang-bang middle-aged prostitutes and refuse to pay, thus getting kicked off the team and possibly out of the school. This is all true, check the news.

up north:
Big Tommy: "So what are you in here for."
Grady: "Soliciting prostitution. I didn't have any money so the bitch ratted me out."
Big Tommy: "Yo, Louie, looks like we've got another one of those St. John's kids in here."
Louie: "Give him the usual welcome ceremony."
Big Tommy: "Sure thing."
Grady: "Hey, how'd you know I'm from St. John's?"
Big Tommy: "Shut up. Just drop your pants and bend over, bitch. This'll only take a minute."

St. Johns is a neighborhood located in North Portland that ignorant people think is the gang infested ghetto. If you believe this then you are an idiot. But this is fine because we don't want you to move here anyway. North and Northeast Portland are the only two semi-diverse and fun places to live in Portland, as many other areas are meth ridden, white bread, suburbs. Recently, as a result of gentrification, young hipsters are infesting St. Johns, and making it a trendy place to move. Unfortunate, really.

St. Johns is far superior to West Linn or Lake Oswego

Wow, isn't St. Johns, like, the ghetto?

St. John's is heaven on earth!

You wont get shot if you drive in North Portland, even though you deserve it for thinking that.
